This solution is ideal when customers like this one in Geneseo, who need a bowing wall fixed immediately. This project was completed in less than a day and didn't require any excavation or exterior digging. This Geneseo wall is now stable and fortified against further movement, thanks to our practical solutions and over three decades of experience.

The homeowner of this basement in Clinton called the professionals at MidAmerica basement Systems and explained that the house was built in the 50's and had leaking walls. The outside drainage was poor and they weren't sure if the basement walls were waterproofed. The design specialist sent to provide an inspection, however, noticed a bigger problem - bowing foundation walls. Realizing that any work done could be compromised by caving foundation walls, the homeowner wanted to permanently stabilize the walls. The team installed the PowerBrace system. PowerBrace is made to permanently support basement walls and has a patented tightening system that could potentially improve the walls condition over time.
